[Intro]
Uh, uh, uh
Uh, uh
Yeah, yeah, yeah, ayy
[Verse 1]
You can try to kick me when I'm down
It ain't gon' break me
And you can love me when I'm on time
It ain't gon' make me, hey
And you can say what you wanna
'Cause I'm still here
I won't give you the satisfaction to see my tears
'Cause ain't a lot of chicks built like the way I'm built
And can't a lot of chicks deal with the shit I live, ayy
[Pre-Chorus]
So I'ma face another day with a smile on my face
And say, "Hey, I'ma be okay"
Yeah, yeah, yeah, ayy
[Chorus]
'Cause I'ma be stronger and wiser
I'm a fighter
Said I'm a bonafide survivor
'Cause I'm a bonafide survivor, ayy
Said I'ma be stronger and wiser
I'm a fighter
Said I'm a bonafide survivor
'Cause I'm a bonafide survivor, ayy
[Verse 2]
You can try to take away my drive, but I stay driven
And you could criticize my lifestyle, but I'm still living, ayy
See, when your heart is hurting and you question your faith
You didn't ever think that it was gon' be this way
'Cause everything that could possibly go wrong did, and
How come I ain't gettin' out of life what I put in? Ayy
[Pre-Chorus]
You gotta find your inner strength, just to face another day
And say, "Hey, I'ma be okay"
Yeah, yeah, yeah, ayy
[Chorus]
'Cause I'ma be stronger and wiser
I'm a fighter
Said I'm a bonafide survivor
'Cause I'm a bonafide survivor, ayy
Said I'ma be stronger and wiser
I'm a fighter
Said I'm a bonafide survivor
'Cause I'm a bonafide survivor, ayy
[Bridge]
Sometimes it gets so outta hand
And you feel like giving up (Don't give up)
'Cause one door close, it's open another
And if it don't happen, you can push a little further
We all go through pain and pain ain't to blame
It's only a short sign of weakness, leave it
Understand, what don't kill you make you stronger
And you're still breathing
[Chorus]
'Cause I'ma be stronger and wiser (Stronger and wiser)
I'm a fighter (Hey, yeah)
Said I'm a bonafide survivor (Hey)
'Cause I'm a bonafide survivor, hey (Ayy, ayy, ayy, yeah)
Said I'ma be stronger and wiser (Ayy yeah)
I'm a fighter (Woo-woo)
Said I'm a bonafide survivor (Said I'm a survivor)
'Cause I'm a bonafide survivor, hey (Ooh)
'Cause I'ma be stronger and wiser (I'ma be stronger, I'ma be wiser)
I'm a fighter (Said I'm gon' be a fighter)
Said I'm a bonafide survivor (Hey, yeah, ooh)
'Cause I'm a bonafide survivor, hey (Yeah)
Said I'ma be stronger and wiser
I'm a fighter (Said I'm gon' be a fighter)
Said I'm a bonafide survivor (I'm a survivor, I'm a survivor)
'Cause I'm a bonafide survivor, hey (Hey, yeah)
[Outro]
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
